AND NoW for....The DucT TaPe Dream!!! (by eener)

Well, folks...guess what?? I actually had a dream involving duct tape
recently. I also had a dream that same night about having a purple
police car come to melvan's house, but that's another story ;-)

The duct tape dream started with me at work at Rockwood Research (where I
worked for years before I moved to Atlanta.) I was calling someone on the
phone, and for some reason the phone broke, and I tried to put a new phone
in. Ya know those little phone jacks where you put the phone line it? I
tried putting the phone line in...but it was too small and wouldn't stay
in the hole!! Jinkies...it was a job for duct tape! So...I told my
supervisor we needed to fix it with duct tape. He said "ok, I think it's
in the basement somewhere. Could you go find it?" And hence began the
QueSt for the DuCt TaPe. I ventured down into the basement...(it's beside
the point that I don't even think Rockwood has a basement...these things
are irrelevant in dreams.) It was filled with cobwebs...*huge* cobwebs!!
I kept getting them in my face as I walked through. I finally found the
duct tape hanging on a peg on one of the support beams. I inspected it
closely, fearing mildew from the basement may have harmed it. Then I went
outside, where I was all of a sudden near a cliff of some type. Water ran
under it. Some of my coworkers were on the other side, and they were
urging me to throw them the duct tape. I tried to throw it and jump over
at the same time, but I could tell it wasn't going to work. They said
"Throw the duct tape over, then come!!" I threw it towards them, but it
came up short and landed in the water, so I leaped in to rescue it.
Hmmm...and I don't remember much more...soooooo I'll end it here. THE
END.

**Do you have one of those questions that keeps you up
at night, wondering? Ask the Wise Sage!
email re11@uwrf.edu with your questions

Dear Wise Sage,

We know it's true for n equal to 1. Now assume that it's true for every
natural number less than n. N is arbitrary, so we can take n as large as
we want. If n is sufficiently large, the case of n+1 is trivially
equivalent, so the only important n are n less than n. We can take n = n
(from above), so it's true for n+1 because it's just about n.

So, what the heck is n?

From Mr. Sharky


Dear Mr. Sharky,

To discover what n is...you must first take the natural logarithm of it.
Of course, if you feel uncomfortable doing that...you can take the
UNnatural logarithm of it. Once you've performed this step, take n and
put it in a Ronco food dehydrator and hit the "power" button. If, after
this, the n has not disintegrated, insert it in a power outlet and listen
for the sound it makes. If it hisses, then n is one. If it explodes...it
won't matter, because you'll be dead.

Wise Sage
